So doing what any normal and intelligent individual would do when faced with interacting with cops? That's not the ACAB I'm used to seeing being paraded on here.
The point is that cops absolutely have the power to kick out the bastards from the force (they have strong unions and dictate their working conditions) and actively choose not to. They are all complicit and know what they signed up for.
Fair enough
True for all 17k policing agencies in the US?
If it’s true for only 16.999k of those agencies, then “Policing Enables Bastards” works w/o any sithlike absolutes :)
That's not normal outside of USA. You're crazy if you think it is.
This very well may be Stockholm syndrome, or something close to it.
Just because you know what to do to mitigate your chances of being shot doesn't mean that that behavior isn't still shitty. Look into how police are trained. They're trained like the military, only the enemy is civilians.
